Abstract

A unique channel-type metal-organic framework (MOF) built up from mixed square-planar Co₄(μ₂-OH)₄(μ₄-OH) and cuboidal Co₄(μ₃-OH)₄ clusters with an isonicotinic acid ligand has been successfully fabricated that demonstrates the highest specific surface area and high H₂ uptake capacities among all of the cobalt(II) isonicotinic acid frameworks reported so far.
